Yeldon is soft-spoken, anyway and doesn’t like being the center of attention — unless he’s carrying the ball weaving through the defense.

“He’s a great kid,” offensive coordinator Doug Nussmeier said. “He’s on the quiet side. He’s a great football player and a great person, and a joy to be around every day.”

Teammates also appreciate Yeldon’s approach. Tight end Brian Vogler trained with him in the offseason and saw the workout intensity and the fun person off the field.

“On the field, he’s the same way he is around here. ... In interviews, he’s quiet,” Vogler said. “He just wants to do his job. Do his job plus more. He wants to help people out. Off the field, he’s a funny guy. We hung out a lot in the spring. He jokes around with everybody, and he’s fun to be around.”
